Brian buys bananas from the grocery store each week. Last week he bought 5 pounds of bananas and paid $2.95. If he buys 8 pounds of bananas this week, how much will he pay?

$2.95/5 =0.59
0.59 is how much each each pound of bananas cost
So- 0.59 x 8 = $4.72

$4.72 is your total cost for 8 pounds of bananas
